Urban Meyer Went To Michigan For Kyle Whittingham

Urban Meyer, the man who never lost to Michigan as Ohio State's head coach, just showed up in Ann Arbor to support his best friend. Meyer and Whittingham's bond dates back to Utah, where Whittingham served as his defensive coordinator before taking over the program when Meyer left for Florida. Now, with Whittingham stepping into the pressure cooker of Michigan's head coaching job, Meyer named him the one coach he's most excited to watch in all of college football in 2026, saying, "It's also what in the hell happened up there, you know? That's very un-Wolverine-like what's taking place there the last few years." Meyer has continued backing Whittingham publicly all offseason, even predicting he'll be ready for the Ohio State rivalry despite never having coached in it.
